Nixon Fights Paper Release

WASHINGTON -- Former President Nixon intends to fight with every legal tool at his command against the release of his Watergate papers scheduled for May, his attorney said.

``There will be claims of presidential privilege lodged by Richard Nixon and maybe, in the near future, a lawsuit will be filed against the entire process,`` said Herbert J. Miller.

The National Archives gave 90-day notice last week that it intended to allow the public to see 1.5 million of the most sensitive documents -- including those seized when Nixon resigned as president on Aug. 9, 1974.
